马塔周记：一场酣畅淋漓的胜利，开启这一周的额外信心

马塔周记，每周一期。有了马塔蜀黍，麻麻再也不用担心我的英语了。

嗨小伙伴们大家好，

我们以尽可能出色的方式进入了4月中旬：一场酣畅淋漓的胜利。这是一场特殊的比赛，非常重要的比赛，尽管我只能作壁上观。我享受老特拉福德的激情氛围，还有队友们的出色表现。显然切尔西是一支非常、非常棘手的对手。他们是迄今为止联赛中最稳定的球队，这是他们能在那么多周里保持第一位置的原因，也是这个比分对我们来说如此重要的原因，因为我们获得了开启这一周的额外信心。我们非常稳定，展示出了强大的竞争性；我希望我们能这样子继续下去，因为当你接近赛季末的时候，每一场比赛都非常重要。

Hi everyone,

We move into mid-April and we do it in the best possible way: with a great win. It was a special game, an important one, and despite being in the stands I enjoyed the great atmosphere at Old Trafford and my team-mates’ great performance. Obviously, Chelsea was a very, very tough rival. They have been the most consistent team in the league so far, that’s why they have been on top for so many weeks and that’s why the score is so important for us, because we get back an extra boost of confidence for the week that is now starting. We were very solid and showed great competitiveness; I hope we can keep it like that because every single game is very important when you approach the end of the season.

如上所述，我来到了老特拉福德球场看比赛。你可以感受到你想要纵入球场中，帮助球队，但是我必须要有耐心，继续训练，努力尽早回归。我每一天都感觉越来越好，而你们的支持话语帮助了我很多。我对你们感激不尽！

As I said, I went to Old Trafford to see the game. You feel like you want to jump onto the pitch and help the team, but I must be patient and keep training to be back as soon as possible. I’m feeling better every day and your messages of support do help a lot. I can’t stop thanking you!

现在我们必须要专注于欧联杯对阵安德莱赫特的次回合比赛，以保持我们的目标，即赢得这项赛事的冠军。

Now we must focus on the second leg of the Europa League tie against Anderlecht to maintain our goal, which is to win this competition.

而在西班牙，争冠形势没有发生什么变化。皇马和巴萨都赢下了各自的比赛(这两队都不得不等到最后才锁定了三分)，所以这周末的国家德比中一切都会有悬念。我还想要强调我的朋友“葫芦娃”比利亚近乎半场的惊人吊射。他依然能在任何地方进球……多么神奇的一位前锋啊！

There’s no change in Spain regarding the fight for the title. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona won their games (and both had to wait until the end to secure the three points), so everything’s at stake in El Clásico this coming weekend. I also want to highlight the stunning goal from my friend ‘Guaje’ Villa from almost the halfway line. He can still score from everywhere… What a striker he is!

不幸的是，我们必须要谈论多特和摩纳哥欧冠赛前发生的事件。首先我想要向我的国家队队友马克-巴尔特拉送上一个大大的拥抱，他已经离开了医院，还有向俱乐部的所有人送上问候。正如你们大部分人一样，我很难理解发生了什么事。这种感觉就是现在一切都失去了控制，像这样的事情在不断激增。但是这种事永远也不会笑到最后。

Unfortunately, we have to talk about the incidents in Dortmund before the Champions League game between Borussia and Monaco. First of all I’d like to send a big hug to my team-mate in the national team Marc Bartra, who has already left the hospital, and to everybody in the club. As most of you, I’m struggling to understand what’s going on. The feeling is that everything is out of control right now and incidents like this multiply. But this kind of things will never win.

祝你们度过愉快的一周。抱抱！

娟儿

Have a nice week. Hugs!

PS：NBA季后赛开始了。哪支球队是你们心中的热门呢？我必须要承认，我太爱看斯蒂芬-库里打球了……在所有的第一回合交手中，马刺和灰熊的对决对我们西班牙人来说尤其特别，因为加索尔兄弟互相较量。

PS: The NBA playoffs are underway. Which team is your favourite to win? I must admit that I love watching Stephen Curry… Of all the first-round ties, the one between the Spurs and the Grizzlies is very special for us in Spain, with the Gasol brothers facing each other.
